    • Own services end-to-end, from architecture to deployment, observability, and performance.
    • Contribute to shared knowledge through documentation, RFCs, and architecture discussions.

REQUIREMENTS

    • Extensive professional experience in software engineering or backend development.
    • Proven problem-solving skills and a track record of building scalable backend systems.
    • Solid understanding of system design, data structures, and algorithms.
